Here, many people have been quarantained. Among them an army corps (one of the members got the flu after a party that involved people from mexico), some politicians (flew in the same plane as someone who also got quarantained).

Neither of these can be transmitted as easily as this.

That is true. But on the other hand, a flu passes away fast, unless you pass away yourself. With malaraia or aids you fight for a long time until the outcome is decided.
